It costs 1845 to 2130 Euros. The new media has a capacity of 23.3Gb (compared to the 4.7Gb of a normal DVD-R), and it is rewritable. It will cost 43 Euros though."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/bluraydisc.jpg" /><br /><br />I found this little nugget of information on Akihabara News and just had to post on it. We finally have screenshots of the Blu-ray drive and a first look at what the disks themselves will look like (last picture). Now, since Sony has decided to make their Playstation Blu-ray compatible, will the new game disks look like that as well?
